Enoki Liquid Mushroom Culture 10ml. Made in England.

10 ml Enoki mushroom liquid culture (Flammulina velutipes) 

Enoki mushrooms, also known as Enokitake, Velvet Foot, Golden Needle, Lily mushrooms, Enoko-take, Jingu in Chinese, Nim Kim Châm in Vietnamese, and Paengi Beoseot in Korean, are both cultivated and found growing in the wild, though the cultivated variety is more commonly used in culinary applications. Wild Enoki mushrooms grow in clusters on trees, whilst the cultivated variety is grown in the dark in a carbon-dioxide-rich environment to encourage the stems to grow long, thin, and white. Enoki mushrooms are highly favoured in Asian cuisine for their al dente texture and are commonly used in hot pot and stir-fries.

FAQs

How to use the liquid culture: Liquid culture should not be used to directly inoculate bulk substrates. Rather, this liquid culture should be used to initially prepare grain spawn by inoculating hydrated and sterilized grains (e.g., wheat, rye, millet, wild bird seed). This should be done under sterile conditions. Once the grain spawn is fully colonised, it can be used to inoculate a sterilised hardwood sawdust based bulk substrate. 

Production: Our liquid cultures are produced using dextrose/malt extract/yeast extract nutrient mixes. Cultures are drawn up in front of an H14 rated HEPA equipped laminar flow hood and sealed with a sterile luer-lock cap. Every batch of our liquid cultures are then grown out on agar to check they are clean and viable before being made available.

Cleanliness: We make every effort to ensure that our cultures will arrive with you clean and viable. If you experience any problems at all please contact us.

Very Important:

Amateur cultivation of mushrooms does not give a guarantee of success!!!

• PS Our strain it has very aggressive mycelium. Even in agar plates, it starts to grow Enoki tiny mushrooms. See the last picture....
